Korishima Jingu's "Mita Uesai" 5 grain fertilization wish Kagoshima June 10, 14:10

The "Mita Uesai" festival held at Kirishima Jingu Shrine in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture was held on the 10th, and prayers for a good harvest were prayed.

The "Mita Uesai" at Kirishima Jingu is held every year at the rice paddies near the shrine, and on the 10th, people involved in the event participated in the Shinto ritual.

At the Shinto ritual, the kagura was dedicated, and a man wearing the face of the god of the field, holding a bell and a rice scoop, performed a dance and a mouth and prayed for a good harvest.

After this, Mikora Saotome entered the paddy field and carefully planted seedlings.

This means that as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus, the number of people was significantly reduced compared to the usual year.

In the fall, rice is harvested and the harvested rice will be used for Shinto rituals.

"I want to reach the end of autumn in a peaceful era where there are no epidemics where the five grains grow richly," said Kojishima Jingu's Toshijiri.
